Freework - possibly the most underrated tool.

▪️Brilliant for introducing puppies to novel items

▪️Brilliant for giving nervous/anxious dogs confidence

▪️Brilliant for monitoring your dogs physical abilities - early indicator for canine arthritis etc.

This is a video I made during lockdown for an old fb page I was running at the time. Sadly, I can't share the original from the page. But I found this saved to my phone.

In a nutshell, you lay out different surfaces and scatter food around. Then just let your dogs forage.

⭐️Top Tip⭐️- Such a simple thing to do but often old habits die hard and it can be tricky for us to remember. But once you get into the habit of rewarding at source (food or toy) you’ll start to see real improvements in your freeze indication. Happy training!

⏰ Did you know that dogs can SMELL the time? Ever wondered how your dog knows it’s dinner time? …

Smells in a room change as the day goes on. Hot air rises, and it usually rises in currents along the walls and will rise to the ceiling and go to the center of the room and drop. If we were able to visualize the movement of air through the day, what we're really visualizing is the movement of odor through the day (Alexandra Horowitz)

How amazing are our dogs noses! ♥️

One of our instructors from West Yorkshire Sniffers just sent us this article. Great read!
This is exactly why UK Sniffer Dogs was born, we realised very quickly the positive effect scent detection has on every dogs behaviour, not just problematic dogs which is why we’ve made it our mission to get as many dogs sniffing as possible 💪🏻🇬🇧🐕

Happy New Year everyone.

Merry Christmas everyone. Hope you all have a great Christmas and a prosperous New Year

Absolutely!

Dogs express natural behaviour. They are not looking to annoy, belittle, or defy us.

Behaviour is connected to emotion.

What is the emotion behind the behaviour?

Once we start thinking of things that way, we start looking at situations differently and that's when we can start to make progress.

Try to remember: Your dog isn’t BEING difficult, they’re HAVING a difficult time. Change the mindset, change the outcome 🐕

Dog food is a minefield!

With so much choice out there, how are we supposed to decide which food is good for our dogs.

One good resource is a website called All About Dog Food. They explain clearly, but in great detail what each ingredient is for each food. Colour coding them from good to bad. You can also click on the ingredient and it will break it down for you. Especially good when dealing with jargon such as 'Meat Meal' or 'Animal Derivatives'
